'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

Quebra tudo! a arte livre de Hermeto Pascoal

"Bruxo" e "Campeão" são alguns dos apelidos que Hermeto Pascoal ganhou ao lado de sua trajetória. Difícil mesmo é precisar quantos anos tem essa trajetória, porque ele mesmo diz que já "nasceu" música. Por essa conta, já são quase 88 anos de som, que não deve terminar tão cedo. Resultado de mais de 50 entrevistas e anos de pesquisa, o livro Quebra Tudo – A Arte Livre de Hermeto Pascoal, do jornalista paulistano Vitor Nuzzi, autor de Geraldo Vandré – Uma Canção Interrompida, de 2015, finalista do Prêmio Jabuti, conta um pouco da história e das histórias protagonizadas pelo artista de Lagoa da Canoa, na região de Arapiraca, em Alagoas.

The Italian

An emblematic story of the shipwreck of the Arab Spring At his father's funeral, to the great consternation of all present, Abdel Nasser beats the imam who is celebrating the funeral rite. The narrator, a childhood friend of the protagonist, retraces the story of "the Italian" from his days as a free and rebellious adolescent spirit to the leader of a student movement and then affirmed journalist. Those were crucial years in Tunisia, years of great tension, change, and repression. Against this background full of revolutionary ferments stands the tormented love story between Abdel Nasser and Zeina, a brilliant and beautiful philosophy student. Their dreams will unfortunately end up being wrecked under the ruthless gears of a corrupt and chauvinist society. Abdel Nasser's transformation from a young idealist with high hopes to a successful, but disillusioned and tired journalist is masterfully narrated in a stream of stories, digressions and flashbacks in which the narrative tension is always high. Winner of the 2015 International Prize for Arabic Fiction
